Sit-to-stand

• Duration: 6 min
• Level: Beginner
• Goal track: Energy boost

Sit toward the edge of a stable chair with your feet hip-width apart. This is your starting position. Lean slightly forward and, keeping your core gently engaged, stand up slowly using your legs rather than pushing with your arms. Keep looking forward rather than down as you rise. Lower back down slowly the same way, using your hands only to guide yourself if needed, for 5 slow repetitions.
